Flash Marriage: A Wife For A Stranger

Zoe was busy today.

She had made preparations for the launch in advance, but she knew how important such an event could be for a new brand making its debut.

Moreover, the brand had decided to use some new models in this show. She must do a lot of extra work in advance just in case. It could be easily imagined how busy and complicated that would be.

Therefore, Zoe couldn’t help getting nervous.

But she could always control her emotions. However nervous she was, she looked just at ease.

When the show was about to begin, she went to comfort the models and have a chat with the designer.

The designs of U. MAX were known for their mix and match style and their focus on the younger generation. The main target of the brand was people aged eighteen to thirty, the group of people who had the strongest spending power for fashion products.

This time, the models would wear ten of their flagship items and a score of other items in the show.

Only after Zoe had checked on the designer clothes her artists were about to wear did she feel relieved.

The launch began at two in the afternoon.

With the lights on and the music played, the models showed their runway walk.

Under the dreamlike lights, the models in good shape walked out one by one. Every item on them looked elegant and graceful.

As a superstar and the brand ambassador, Curtis was the last one to come on the stage.

He was wearing a leather jacket, looking casual and handsome.

Plenty of his fans were present and waves of purple bulbs had already flooded around the stage supporting their idol. When he came out, screams and cheers went up from the crowd.

Zoe looked at it behind the stage and curled her lips.

Then there was an organizer who came to talk to her, “Miss Gil, you can even sign with a superstar like Curtis. I am a bit envious.”

He was the senior manager of Annie International and they sometimes worked together, so he was no stranger to Natalie.

Zoe smiled and said, “I am just lucky.”

Nobody knew that Curtis and she were old friends.

They just thought that Zoe was lucky enough to sign with Curtis.

Even so, it would be more than enough to get plenty of people envious.

As they continued talking, Zoe’s phone buzzed a few times.

She looked down and took a glimpse at the screen and her gaze turned cold.

As Zoe’s phone rang, the manager waved goodbye to Zoe and got down to his own business.

Zoe answered the phone with a cold expression.

“Where are you?”

When Zoe picked up the phone, she heard a very powerful and bossy voice of an old woman.

Zoe sneered, “What’s up?”

“We’ll have a guest tonight. You should come home.”

Zoe frowned.

A guest?

Did it have anything to do with her?

The relations between her and her family had been very tense since their last fight. What kind of guest were they having and they needed her to be there?

She refused without hesitation, “I am busy.”Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Zoe Gil, now you have hooked up with Mr. Han, and you dare to refuse to listen to my words. Anyway, I am your grandmother. You’re a member of the Gil family. I can let you do whatever you like to do in the outside, but what you’ve done recently has damaged the reputation of the Gil family. I can’t let you do it at will, so you must come back tonight!”

Zoe frowned.

“What are you talking about? Damaging the reputation of the Gil family?”

“I’ll tell you when you come back. Now is not a good time.”

Zoe paused for a moment.

Zoe suddenly thought about the place where she tailed after Annie. She rolled her eyes and replied, “I see.”

After hanging up the phone, Zoe sent a text message to Henry.

She told him that she couldn’t go back home for dinner and might come back late.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the message was sent, her mobile phone rang.

Zoe was slightly astonished and answered the phone.

The man’s low and sexy voice came from the other end.

“You are going to meet your family?”

Zoe said yes.

“Do I need to keep you company?”

“No need. I can go back myself.”

“…”

Henry was silent for a while and didn’t push in.

He was better than anyone that Zoe was a tough woman.

However, he still reminded her, “Be safe and call me if anything happens to you.”

“Well, got it.”

…

At six in the evening.

She called it a day and went to the Gil family by car.

As soon as she got off the car, she saw a black Bentley parked not far away.

She was somewhat surprised.

Zoe had never seen anyone in the Gil family drive such a car.

There seemed to be a guest in the villa.

She gazed at the villa, deliberating, strode out and walked into it.

“Miss Zoe, welcome back.”

It was David that opened the door. He kept smiling when he saw Zoe.

Zoe had no idea whether David was sincere or not. However, David was the only one that would smile at her in the Gil family.

She didn’t reply but put on a faint smiled and nodded.

“They are waiting for you in the living room!”

“Alright.”

Zoe put on her slippers and walked into the living room.

As expected, not only Ciara, Jaden and Helen, but a fat middle-aged man was there.

Zoe knew that man, a partner of Gil Group, named Randy Kruf.

He had wide contacts. He did well in both underworld and the business field. His connections reached both the authority and the underworld.

It was said that he got married once. His wife couldn’t stand being tortured and committed suicide jumping off a building.

Zoe didn’t know if it was the fact, but she didn’t think it further. She walked in and greeted them.

“Grandma, Dad.”

Zoe ignored Helen.

A hint of embarrassment flashed across her face. Helen stood up and said with a smile, “You talk. I go to the kitchen to check on the dinner.”

Ciara didn’t blame Zoe for showing no respect as usual but nodded.

“Go ahead. By the way, call Annie and Steven and asked them when they could come back.”

“Yes.”

After Helen left, Zoe walked to the other side of the sofa and sat down.

“Why do you call me back?”

Ciara fixed her gaze on Zoe.

Looking at the delicate and cold look, and her good figure, Ciara had mixed feelings in her heart.

To be honest, Zoe was more beautiful than Annie.

If Zoe played her part well, she could help the Gil family go further and became more prosperous.

However, Zoe had such a quirky mother, who had made her so headstrong and willful since she was still young.

And for what happened last time they met, Ciara hated Zoe to the core now.
